That’s the nebula, Commander. I really hope that you don’t disappear on me now, or Starfleet will never let me close to any starships. So, any signs of our captain?

Not yet. I am running several scans to detect any possible carbon or silicon-based lifeforms and spatial fluctuations in case there are dimensional pockets.

Negative results on those scans, but I have managed to isolate the warp trail from a ship other than USS Tsiolkovsky. Maybe the bridge crew's disappearance is not the nebula’s trick…

…but a trap? Now I think I remember something. That power outage didn’t look entirely caused by the nebula’s magnetic interference: the initial readings were too even, and that short alarm…

We need to follow the trail. It’s just a hunch, but I feel like we will find our answers on the other side.

The Klingon ship is neutralized. There is a battle aboard the vessel, and I detect weapons fire. There are Federation officers on the bridge there. Opening the channel.

It’s good to hear from you, Ensign. No, the Klingon scout ship kidnapped us to get data on the Federation outposts in this sector. Ensign, is the ship alright? Did she sustain much damage?

Relax, Lingxin. It’s under Captain Barris’s control. The Klingons kidnapped the bridge crew, but they did a good job blaming it on the nebula instead. If it weren’t for Commander, we’d never find our captain.

Thank you, Commander. And thank you, Ensigns. Your decisiveness has saved lives, many lives. Now, six to beam aboard. It’s time to report to the Starfleet and enjoy some rest.

Oh, thank goodness, finally, some luck on my side! Commander, I really need your help. My shuttle is broken, and the officers here won’t help me fix it, saying there’s a “giant queue for repairs.”

I need to return to USS Tsiolkovsky as soon as possible. The situation there is a bit out of control. Will you help me with that? Don’t tell me you also have a giant queue of other favors to do!

They are gone. Not dead, I hope, but as we passed through the nebula during our mission, we encountered an electromagnetic interference. Our systems turned off, just for a minute…

Dialogue
And when the lights were back on, they were just… not here. Nebula stole them, I guess? That used to happen in the past; they hold all sorts of secrets and sentient beings. Or that was that weirdo Q.

That outage damaged our long-distance communications, so I took the shuttle to ask Starfleet for help. The colony I landed on had a handful of its own problems, but I met the Commander!

I bet Starfleet will take five million years to investigate that nebula, and our captain could be literally on the brink of death. We must check that nebula again!

I… I agree, Lingxin. Just to make sure, let’s send the distress signal to Starfleet to protect the USS Tsiolkovsky while we look for our captain. I have the coordinates ready, Commander.
